"The Spa offers an exemplary (by international standards) range of therapies for mind, body, and soul, administered by expert professionals, and the two lovely pools are a haven of highly catered relaxation"

"Set in the old guest villa of Norodom Sihanouk, the suites here are among the largest in town and some include a private plunge pool"

"Twelve of the 24 earthy suites—all done up in timber, stucco, and terrazzo—are set around a verdant, central courtyard, while the other half have private plunge pools"

"The Amansara has a small collection of rooms, each of which has its own hot tub and pool"

"Accommodations are done in minimalist gray and white, and guests can relax by the swimming pool or in the library or spa"

"Another 12 newer pool suites match in size and layout, save for the private 6-m-by-5-m pools in their courtyards"

"The courtyard suites have secluded gardens with reflecting ponds and sun loungers — though, with the Cambodian heat, it might be worth booking a pool suite to cool off as fast as possible"
